For me they are even better than Google. But I use Qwant now.
It's not as good as google was when I was first allowed to use the internet 15+ years ago, but much better than today's google. Just so much more peace of mind to know that profit isn't what governs my search results.
It still kinda does, since it's Bing under the hood.

I love DDG AI
Just dont use ChatGPT but one of the other models. I find LLama to work fine.
Wha... Why? Why gpt the only baddy?
Well afaik they host their open source models them selves / with a cloud service they have control over so no data going to big bad tech
Yeah, I trust DuckDuckGo. And I like they anonymize my AI queries. I feel like itβs the next best thing to running it locally.
